PH chairman Anwar Ibrahim spoke out against those who 'stooped so low as to exploit religion by issuing fatwas legitimising support for the corrupt and demonising their opponents'.KUALA LUMPUR: Pakatan Harapan chairman Anwar Ibrahim has urged the people of Melaka to use their ballots in the state election tomorrow to reject those who exploit religion for political gain, as well as those involved in corruption.
In a Facebook post tonight, Anwar said Melaka voters had an opportunity to send a strong message and become a beacon of hope for those who wanted to see the country free of corruption.
“Over the past few days, we have witnessed the true face of a so-called ‘unity’. For the sake of votes and power, they have stooped so low as to exploit religion by issuing fatwas legitimising support for corrupt individuals, demonising their opponents and even equating the choice of who to vote for with the obligation to perform ablution.
